Behind This Sun To lose so fast what once you had Can make you find something worth living for Is the end a blackhole? Or where do we go? Will the stars evapourate or multiply? See the pattern forming All you got to do is decide Behind this sun is another one But it wasn’t meant to shine The storm is gone and now you’re reborn So why is it that you’re still running? What is it that you’re still running from? See the pattern forming All you got to do is decide Behind this sun is another one But it wasn’t meant to shine Behind this sun is another one But it wasn’t meant to shine Behind this sun is another one

Like A River 04:20
Like A River Running with the hounds but my heart is still a fox I can see what lies behind those eyes Something I can’t define A form of liquid light Look for the magic If you seek you will find These days have fallen on dark times but confusion is just a state of mind Like a river I can be shallow Like a river I can be deep I’ve been known to float away And I have been guilty of sitting on a cornerstone waiting around to die When you are giving everything Getting nothing in return The demons take over The shadows rain When everything reminds you of someone It’s hard to forget Keep running up that hill ‘til you right the wrong Like a river I can be shallow Like a river I can be deep I’ve been known to float away And I have been guilty of sitting on a cornerstone waiting around to die

Mystery Of Days The spectrum between is bright and glistening A transparent light, a white lightning The mystery of these days I hope will be explained Gliding with the rain to feel something again Let go of your heart and watch it fall apart The mystery of these days I hope will be explained The strangeness of these ways Will slowly be arranged Watching the decay Is keeping me at bay All I want is you Living life a ghost we do nothing but float The mind is a cave that contains an endless road The mystery of these days I hope will be explained The strangeness of these ways Will slowly be arranged Watching the decay Is keeping me at bay All I want is you

Can’t Get Away I see no light now The dark has unravelled on my day Seeing you brought everything back but the sun It seems I just can’t get away It seems I just can’t get away To see the beauty The different beat of the drum The whisper of the departed Is a tempting conversation It seems I just can’t get away It seems I just can’t get away The hands of the earth are pulling me beneath Flower covered dirt awaits a pure body It seems I just can’t get away It seems I just can’t get away

The Colours Of Darkness “What’s that in your pocket?” Outside the world is melting down... “Can I see it just for a minute? I promise I won’t let it fall...” Silence throws its sheet over the room Crystal tears form, cue the wind “I’ll give it back to you I swear...” Truth lies through its golden teeth This could get serious take it slow God forbid we become responsible The morning tried to take hold of me But the illusion loses its poor grip... “Can I have it back now please? But it’s mine you gave it to me?” When everything is read, dead and gone What becomes of the mind of a buried skull? Does confusion take a rest to enjoy the colours of darkness? Shadows dance from a wasted day to chase light’s heels and whip them into shape...

One Shot 03:19
One Shot When darkness falls, you find yourself all alone Is it never too late or is that time gone? Rolling around the inside of your head Should you go for it or lay down instead? Walking the shore like it’s a different dream Looking at life through a different scene Walking the shore Like it’s a different dream Don’t think you know what it is you want, but who does? Falling from a different tree Could we be something or should we stay where we fell? Walking the shore like it’s a different dream Looking at life through a different scene Well if you want it, you should take it You only get one shot in this dream! You only get one shot! You only get one shot! You only get one shot! You only get one shot!

Diamonds 03:00
Diamonds I want to dream where the sun rests Walk with the ghosts of yesterday Transform into the daylight While playing with the sands of time All I ask is to tell me where the truth lies To exist ONLY in your eyes I don’t need to mirror the past Searching for the diamonds of the night Wanting something you can’t have You may as well just live amongst the dead Open up your heart to an illusion Only for it to get lost between the lies When the rain somehow eases the pain Cast a shadow on a memory Who am I to tell you what to believe? Once you’re gone, You’re not coming back Wanting something you can’t have You may as well just live amongst the dead Open up your heart to an illusion Only for it to get lost between the lies

Come With Me (Take The Night) Do you wake up falling? Dreams pushing you from sleep Dare to touch them Double dare to breathe Oh city of piety Our thoughts are drawn to sin It’s time to deny life’s knife From here on in Come with me Come with me Meet me down past the lane Through the eight arches Steal a kiss from the rain And offer up all we bring Will I see you near the yellow gate? Too narrow to cut through straight I’m not afraid to give myself up The mirror doesn’t lie It just looks Come with me Come with me Here and now I can feel your heartbeat This night could be ours Come take it with me Come with me.. to take the night
